Blow off valve?

[Boy blue]

Hey all! I've been wanting to get a BOV for my 3.3T, not sure if there is one made yet or not sure what fits?

Check this link out. I have no experience with the seller/products offered on the G70 but it may get you some ideas what is out there.

Isn’t there one by default?

Like most modern turbocharged cars, the G70 uses a recirculating bypass valve and not an atmospheric blow-off valve. Because the car uses MAP sensors and not MAF sensors there's no major risk in converting to atmospheric, but there would be a theoretical hit to throttle response because the car needs to rebuild air charge rather than use what's being recirculated. Really the only reason to do this is the "pssshhhh" sound on shifts.

That's what I thought in reading up on BOV's. If the only benefit is the sound...definitely not for me I would rather spend my money on enhancing the exhaust sound.

In previous cars you could accomplish more sound by removing the baffles in the intakes, allowing actual turbo sounds to exist. Wonder if the same could be done in our car, darth Vader g70 anyone?

Putting on an aftermarket intake seems to make the recirculation valve/blow off valve sound much more noticeable - not as loud as an aftermarket blow off valve, but certainly louder than stock. Personally, I'd do that first and then if you still want something louder, go for it! But like PD705 said, there is no performance benefit.

I ordered the GFB dual tms respons kit and it was pretty straight forward install, took about 30 minutes or so. The thing I like about these are is they are adjustable for venting to atmosphere or re-circulation. IMO best of both worlds, not to mention adds a nice touch to the engine bay!

Hey Showexc, how have you liked having these on your ride?

Any issues with it?

Overall did you achieve the desired sound you were going for with them?

Do You Know if they made one for the 2.0t yet? if yes, where can i find one

Know this thread might be a little stale but has anybody had any issues with their BOV? As far as boost leaks or running “rich”? I have a HKS BOV I’m soon to get installed and I wanted to read others peoples experience.
